Tips
Winterization and Fuel System Maintenance
Here is a suggestion about caring for your small engine equipment: About 95 percent of the problems which I encounter with lawn and garden
equipment that will not start up or run properly is directly related to old gas that was left in the fuel system over the winter. The easiest
remedy for this is to use a fuel stabilizer treatment such as Sta-bil. I highly
recommend using a fuel stabilizer ALL the time! This is partly but primarily because today’s gasoline has a very short life span of only about
a month do to the ethanol that is mixed in with it. The ethanol has a very short life span and in a period of about two weeks begins to break
down. It then corrodes and deteriorates the internal parts of the carburetor. I have read in some literature where it states that gas is only
good for approximately two weeks before it starts going bad. Right now the amount of ethanol in our gas is 10 percent. However, the rumor is
that they are going to increase to 15 percent. This will cause even more problems.
We strongly recommend using a fuel stabilizer at ALL times, not just for winter storage! The brand we use is Sti-Bil. It can be purchased anyplace lawn and garden equipment is sold or at any auto parts store.
Maintenance verses Repair: It is important to recognize the difference between the two:
Maintenance: Maintenance is something you should do annually regardless of how your machine is running. This will ensure proper performance throughout the season.
Repair: If your machine is not performing or running properly then it probably needs some type of repair.
